Bob & Krissy ~ Engagement

Posted on October 8, 2009

This past weekend I had the pleasure of taking photos with Bob and Krissy. What a super fun couple. Bob and Krissy are getting married on May 1st 2010. Too bad that I can’t be at their wedding; they are getting married in Ohio…

What I have learned over the past 4 months is getting out of my comfort zone. You see, I don’t like to be ‘bossy’ — it is just not in my nature. But when you are taking photos, you need to be ‘bossy’ . Bob and Krissy made it really easy for me – they followed my instruction without much grumbling :) .

So, here are some photos from the session at Scottsdale’s ‘Civic Center Mall’ (it is actually a park)…

Don’t they make a beautiful couple?

Summer Heat and the Phoenician

Posted on July 14, 2009

Over the last three months I have learned a lot — I mean a lot. I always thought that I would not enjoy working with kids, especially younger ones. But I was so wrong…

Last weekend I had the chance to have a session at the Phoenician. I was trilled that my husband agreed to go with me. I love having him with me when I go for a session – he is so knowable and I appreciate his advice on photo shoots.

As you can expect, it was hot (really hot) last weekend. I have never worked so hard on formatting photos (don’t worry, I won’t go into details – :lol: ) …Well, one of the kids was sweet little 2-year-old Tyler. I really bonded with him on the session on June 19th. He even gave me a hug this time…

Let me share some shots with him and his cousins that flew in from California for the holiday weekend…

I just love this face. I told my client that I would like little Tyler as my model :wink: . You have to admit, his face is just too cute — oh and those sweet, big eyes…

Here is a shot all four kids — check out Tyler’s sweet expression in this shot — too cute :)

The next shot is of Kyrra and Bobby (Tyler’s older brother) …Loving it!!!! Check out Kira’s eyes — just marvelous…

If by chance, you are reading this post, have girl(s) between the ages of 3 and 8, I would love to hear from you. Please use my contact form, enter “Blog Post” in the ‘where did you find us’ section, and ‘Girl(s) Fall session’ in the message box. I will be waiving the session fee for you (first one to contact me only).

I wanted to share one more photo from last weekend’s session. I am planning to add couples to my portfolio in the Fall. Doesn’t the background almost look like a fake? I promise you, it is not – the shot is also taken at the Phoenician — outside…
